0,33 l botttle. Bought in a german Lidl market. Left from last asia-weeks special offers? Not really cheap with 69 ct. The alcohol is listed on the backside label with 4.7%. Pours out very clear and watery golden in the glass. White head, very short living. Not a lot on the nose, maybe a little bit citrus with rice. Starts thin malty with citrus. Later cardboard, light citrus, little bit scratchy. Hints of hay in the afteraste. Not be worth to ship from so far away.

355 ml bottle. Pours a clear, pale yellow with a small, short lived white head. Skunky aroma with corn. Slightly sweet flavour of malt, corn and grass with a dry finish. Light body with a watery texture and fizzy carbonation. Below average, even for a lager.

palony, lekko kremowy zapach z nutami czekoladowymi. kolor ciemny, ale nie czarny, w środku pływają niezbyt ładne ale też niezbyt widoczne kłaczki. piana przyzwoita, beżowa. w smaku pustawe, lekko wodniste, z wyraźną palonością i dość sporą goryczką. mało ułożone, ale nie czuć alkoholu.

Bottle. Pours clear gold with bright white head. Spicy, grassy, sweaty aroma. Taste is minimal malt, old flannel, low sweetness & flavour, finishes dry. Pretty bad.

0,33 bottle with red label and 4.7% vol. Very pale colour, like lemon juice, almost no head. Aroma is crisp, with weak herbal hops. Light bitterness, maybe a bit sour. Watery, soft carbonation. Not bad, but nothing interesting in it.

After reading the above note, clearly this was the beer I had under the same ABV.
Though after having this more than enough times in the bottle and having it in a pint glass, I’ve also been able to get it in a pilsener glass as well.
Here’s the rest.
The appearance was a nice light yellow color with strong rising carbonation to fill a rapidly dissipating head. There was some light lacing but it slid right on into the beer somewhat quickly.
The smell had a generic cooked corn like substance but somehow maybe even be rice that was in as well or possibly just itself.
The taste was semi - sweet and had a slight quick sweet clean and crisp finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a pretty good sessionability about it causing it to go well with food. The carbonation was somewhat crisp yet smooth.
Overall, decent pale lager that’s worthy of coming back though the smell seemed a bit weak.

27 cl clear bottle, cheap. Yellow color, short head, fizzy, somewhat skunky. Aroma of faint grains with rice and paper. Flat taste, no finish, gassy. More or less the same thing as the export one
